New York Times bestselling author Robin Burcell has worked as a cop, hostage negotiator, and an FBI-trained, forensic artist. She brings that unparalleled experience to her continuation of Carolyn Weston's groundbreaking series of books, the basis for the legendary TV show The Streets of San Francisco.

Sgt. Al Krug and his younger, college-educated partner Casey Kellog are investigating a string of strangulation killings when another victim is found at the Presidio...but a surprising, violent incident at the crime scene makes them wonder if everything is what it seems. The two miss-matched cops, with sharply conflicting approaches to detective work, are under intense pressure to get results. It's a race-against-the-clock investigation that propels them into the deadly intersection of politics, real estate, media and vice... the fertile, fog-shrouded killing field of a ruthless murderer.

"Robin Burcell breathes new life into the police procedural. Her clear love and understanding of Carolyn Weston's original characters and their dynamics make this return to the streets of San Francisco a complex, compelling, and ultimately satisfying tale. Great work by a great writer." Paul Bishop, former LAPD homicide detective and the author of Lie Catchers

"A whip-smart, fast-paced tale with more twists and turns than a San Francisco street, The Last Good Place is a terrific read." Alison Gaylin, USA Today Bestselling Author

"A fabulous reboot of a beloved classic. With smart, clever writing and an elegant plot, Robin Burcell has nailed it." -J.T. Ellison, New York Times bestselling author of What Lies Behind

"A twisty mystery worthy of the iconic team of Krug & Kellog. The streets of San Francisco come alive in this new installment. A definite winner!"- Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award winning author of Murder on Bamboo Lane

"Talk about a blast from the past...fans of The Streets of San Francisco will love The Last Good Place...Burcell, a former cop herself, treats us to snappy squad-room dialogue but also takes time to highlight the complications of each detective's personal life." Mystery Scene

"This is a fun, well-plotted police procedural that delves into the inner workings of a police department and its detectives. Readers may be reminded of Ed McBain, the master of building relationships between officers, utilizing black-humor banter, and keeping his novels timeless," Kings River Life Magazine

"Burcell has always brought a cop's sensibilities and knowledge to her fiction, as well as a talent for suspense-building. And it's no less true in The Last Good Place, a craftily constructed procedural." The Rap Sheet
